Наткнулся сегодня на любопытную статью (на английском языке, извиняйте). Статья про то как интернет меняет повседневную жизнь и представление детей о личных аспектах жизни. Здесь два фактора: первый - необычайная легкость публикации любой информации и доступа к ней. Разместить любой текст, фотографии, видео и звукозапись занимает сейчас несколько секунд и под силу первокласснику. Второй фактор - привнесение Интернетом уровня отстраненности, который убирает эмоциональную преграду для публикации и восприятия материалов. Люди легко пишут и показывают на фотографиях то, что постеснялись бы сказать в лицо и показать при личной встрече даже близким людям, не говоря уж о все мире.

Photos from miscellaneous old films are getting available in the photo album in increasing numbers, thanks to my cousin, who is undertaking an immense task of scanning these films with special equipment which he is also providing.

We are finally getting settled in Illinois. If you do not know yet (and care), we recently moved to the western outskirts of Chicago. The furniture has not arrived yet but we do have an apartment, somewhat empty at the moment, and most of the moving hassle is behind.

I see a herd of buffalos every day.

I began preparing to the moment when the son will ask me where the fuck he has come from. I've considered the standard stork stories, "found in the bushes/mushrooms" stuff, and decided to go with the "bought-in-store" version. It is plausible enough, and the proof can be easily fabricated, as you can see in the picture. I am all set for the next ten years or so. After that he shouldn't really ask me, and try to see for himself.
